Tarte Brazilliance Skin Rejuvenating Maracuja Self Tanner

The Claim: Meet another product harnessing the brand's famed maracuja oil. Packed with essential fatty acids and skin-brightening vitamin C, it leaves the complexion radiant, glowing, and, of course, tan. Additional ingredients like vitamin E and sunflower seed oil fight free radicals and moisturize skin.

The Truth: "This is great for people who are phobic of streaks and smells, since the included mitt makes application smooth and it smells like blueberry pie—for reals," our tester said. "I'd definitely say the color is more brown than orange." Used before a jaunt to California, the glow got thumbs-up from the beach, too!
